And that line is... the ability to let those around you make mistakes and even fail and deal with the consequences of their mistakes and failures without feeling like you need to rescue them or prevent them from making the mistakes or failing.
Yep. Even with the best of intentions... fixing and rescuing is STILL controlling. And it's hard to stop. I'm letting H deal with this mess all by himself & it's hard. Especially considering just how much rescuing he needs right now. But this is his journey, if I jump in he will NEVER figure it out on his own.
Drop the rope. Drop it. It's hard, but it will feel so freeing.
